Week 2 Projections Live
Our projections for Week 2 fantasy football quarterbacks are now live after learning about all 32 NFL teams in Week 1.
Jalen Hurts Rises
Hurts rises to QB2 of the week thanks to his matchup against the Titans, who oppose Philadelphia with my 29th-rated defense in the NFL.
Bo Nix Falls
Bo Nix had a very bad Week 1: 131 passing yards and 2 yards rushing, ranking him QB31 in Week 1.
Jaxson Dart's Matchup
While rated as the QB6, Dart has a tough matchup with the Rams, who are a top-3 defense in the NFL despite Myles Garrett's absence.
Trevor Lawrence
Trevor Lawrence is the QB4 in 2025 fantasy football after 4 touchdowns and 0 interceptions, showing weekly top-5 upside despite a tougher matchup.
Baker Mayfield Sleeper
Baker Mayfield is a sleeper with a QB26 rating in Week 1, set to face the Browns' 20th-rated defense and worst offense in the NFL.
Week 2 Leader Projections
Passing Yards: Josh Allen (253.5), Passing Touchdowns: Joe Burrow (1.8), Interceptions: Cooper Rush (0.9), Rushing Yards: Jayden Daniels (32.0).
Fade These Quarterbacks
Jared Goff is another sit-able asset at QB19, while Bo Nix needs to show success before being trusted.
What Happens Next
Mayfield is a must-start in SuperFlex formats but should be benched in most leagues, making him a top handcuff option.
The bottom line
Jalen Hurts rises to QB2 in fantasy rankings after strong matchup against Titans, while Bo Nix falls to QB31 with poor Week 1 performance.
